A Nearly Scale Invariant Spectrum of Gravitational Radiation from Global Phase Transitions

Katherine Jones-Smith, Lawrence M. Krauss, Harsh Mathur

Using a large N sigma model approximation we explicitly calculate the power spectrum of gravitational waves arising from a global phase transition in the early universe and we conf…

The Late Time Behavior of False Vacuum Decay: Possible Implications for Cosmology and Metastable Inflating States

Lawrence M. Krauss, James Dent

We describe here how the late time behavior of the decaying states, which is predicted to deviate from an exponential form, while normally of insignificant consequence, may have im…

Drip Paintings and Fractal Analysis

Katherine Jones-Smith, Harsh Mathur, Lawrence M. Krauss

It has been claimed [1-6] that fractal analysis can be applied to unambiguously characterize works of art such as the drip paintings of Jackson Pollock. This academic issue has bec…

Anthropics and Myopics: Conditional Probabilities and the Cosmological Constant

Irit Maor, Lawrence Krauss, Glenn Starkman

We re-examine claims that anthropic arguments provide an explanation for the observed smallness of the cosmological constant, and argue that correlations between the cosmological c…

The Return of a Static Universe and the End of Cosmology

Lawrence M. Krauss, Robert J. Scherrer

We demonstrate that as we extrapolate the current CDM universe forward in time, all evidence of the Hubble expansion will disappear, so that observers in our "island universe" w…

Cosmic Deconstructionism

Lawrence M. Krauss, Glenn D. Starkman

Dark Matter that is composed of WIMP remnants of incomplete particle-antiparticle annihilation in the early universe experiences ongoing annihilation in gravitationally bound large…
